Abstract
The study of antiproton yield in - and - collisions is important for the astrophysical search for dark matter consisting of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles. Refinement of the production cross section, angular and momentum spectra of produced antiprotons in a wide energy range could help to treat the results obtained by the AMS-02 and PAMELA orbit spectrometers. In this paper we present a detailed Monte Carlo study of possible measurements at the planned SPD experiment at the NICA collider that is under construction at JINR (Dubna).
